HOW IT WORKS
Three steps, no account, nothing to install.
01
Upload your FUZ file
Drag and drop a .fuz voice file extracted from the game's archives, or select it from your device.
02
Convert to MP3
Keep MP3 as the output format and start. The voice audio is taken out of the .fuz and encoded with LAME at VBR quality 2.
03
Download the MP3
Download one MP3 per .fuz. It plays on phones, in browsers and in any audio or video editor.
FUZ
FUZ is the voice-dialogue file of Bethesda games such as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 4. Each file holds one spoken line: a FUZE header, the lip-sync data the game uses to animate the speaker's face, and the audio, usually xWMA and sometimes a plain WAV. Media players don't open .fuz files.
MP3
MP3 is a lossy compressed audio format built for small files and broad playback compatibility. It works on almost every phone, browser, car stereo, media player, and editing application.
FILE FORMATS
SOURCE
FUZ is Bethesda's voice file format in Skyrim and Fallout 4. Each .fuz starts with a FUZE header and combines lip-sync data, which animates the character's mouth, with the spoken line as xWMA or WAV audio. Media players don't understand the combined file.
TARGET
MPEG-1 Audio Layer III has been the universal music format since the 1990s. It compresses audio by removing sounds the ear is unlikely to hear, so a song takes a few megabytes instead of tens. ID3 tags carry the title, artist and album art, and every phone, browser, car stereo and editor plays it.
| Feature | FUZ | MP3 |
|---|---|---|
| Developed by | Bethesda | MPEG (Fraunhofer) |
| File extension | .fuz | .mp3 |
| Compression | xWMA or WAV inside | Lossy |
| Size vs uncompressed WAV | Small voice lines | About 1/7 to 1/10 |
| Tags and cover art | Lip-sync data | ID3 tags and cover art |
| Best for | Skyrim and Fallout 4 voice lines | Music and podcasts everywhere |
| Plays on phones and browsers | No, needs vgmstream | Yes |
USE CASES
Practical workflows where FUZ to MP3 conversion is useful.
Listen to a character's voice line
Play a single line of Skyrim dialogue in any player, without opening the game or a modding tool.
Use dialogue in a fan video or machinima
Bring a character's line into a video editor as an MP3 to cut it into a fan film or montage.
Match the original line for a voice mod
Hear the line you're replacing so a new recording matches its timing and tone.
Check what a mod's voice files contain
Listen to the .fuz files a follower or quest mod adds without installing it in the game.
Build a soundboard of favorite lines
Collect memorable lines as MP3s for a soundboard app or stream alerts.
Share a line on Discord
Post a voice line in a chat, where an MP3 plays inline instead of showing up as an unknown file.
Transcribe dialogue for subtitles or a wiki
Convert lines to MP3 for a transcription tool when writing subtitles or a quest page.
Compare dialogue across languages
Convert the same line from different language versions of the game to compare the deliveries.
Make an Android ringtone from a famous line
Turn a well-known line into an MP3 you can set as a ringtone or notification sound on Android.
Recover a partly copied voice file
A .fuz cut short inside its audio still gives the part of the line that is present, with no silent padding.
SUPPORTED FILES
Bethesda .fuz voice files are supported.
xWMA voice audio, tested on real Skyrim files.
The same FUZE container, handled the same way.
Files with only a voice part convert too.
Plain WAV voice audio is supported.
Upload many FUZ files and download the MP3s as a ZIP.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Game audio works differently from normal music files, which explains most surprises.
01
Lip-sync data is dropped, and no .lip file is delivered.
02
The file isn't a Bethesda voice file. Check it was extracted from a BSA or BA2 archive correctly.
03
A FUZ cut off inside its audio gives the part that's present, with no warning.
04
Use our XWM to MP3 converter for .xwm files.
05
Skyrim voice lines are compressed in the game. The MP3 matches the game audio closely.
06
Extract the file again with a Bethesda archive tool and retry.
vgmstream is the reference decoder for game audio, used through foobar2000 or the command line. dragdropdo runs the same decoder in the browser, so you can turn FUZ into MP3 on any device.
